Daily commuters are promised free Wi-Fi if they are to purchase a weekly ticket. Some may even pay for that additional "bonus" if the X84 is suitable for their journey, as opposed to the 685.
I understand that running costs (fuel consumption) may be a little higher with the Scania as opposed to the MPD, but I do think it's a little irritating that an MPD is to be the Sunday allocation.
The 74A would see an upgrade from Euro 2/Euro 3 vehicles to Euro 4 vehicles with free Wi-Fi and the X84's promise would not be broken.
